I love home made jam and it is such a great way to use the abundance of home grown fruit so that you can use it all year round. Here is one of my favourite jam recipes from my blog: http://gormandizewithus.blogspot.com/2011/09/homemade-tangello-and-goji-berry-jam.htmlK-bobohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17821733202271604409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-30830119634239035232010-12-06T15:36:37.207-05:002010-12-06T15:36:37.207-05:00Here&#39;s a tip I gleaned from reading up on June...Here&#39;s a tip I gleaned from reading up on June Taylor and her jams. To sterilize jars, just put on a baking tray in the oven at 200 while you are making your jam. Remove with tongs as you fill. Screw on lid. No need to water bath can. I only water bath can if my jars don&#39;t seal.<br /><br />Happy canning!sabjimatahttp://sabjimata.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-44293358648440380812010-10-06T16:14:21.394-04:002010-10-06T16:14:21.394-04:00I&#39;ve been a silent stalker of your blog for qu...I&#39;ve been a silent stalker of your blog for quite some time. My neighbor had a bunch of grapes on her vine she was going to just let rot so when I saw your post I was inspired to go pick a huge basket full, process them down to about 10 cups of juice, and make this jelly (only one 4 cup batch is actually made so far though). I am now contemplating giving up all regular meals and replacing them with toast and this jelly because I am absolutely addicted now. Thanks so much for sharing this super easy recipe!Heathere Willoughbyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04345408219908353418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-64322232154894170782010-10-05T14:45:26.248-04:002010-10-05T14:45:26.248-04:00If you ever want to cut the sugar content, I gener...If you ever want to cut the sugar content, I generally use about a cup of agave or a few teaspoons of stevia powder as sweetener and then I use Agar flakes or powder to set the jelly. You NEVER have a batch that won&#39;t set and you can set it as hard or soft as you please. Works also with the sugar, but you don&#39;t have to use as much as you would to set the pectin properly.<br />(I also love to make jams and jellies, but I&#39;ve had to learn how to not use processed sugars as many I know have health issues associated with them.) Fresh grape jelly is one of my all time favorites.Morgainehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15640201525845388874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-74798208826480142272010-10-03T22:47:54.620-04:002010-10-03T22:47:54.620-04:001/4 cup of what?

It is fall here, so I was thinking about taking a few but did not know if they would be tough.Anna (Green Talk)http://www.blogger.com/profile/00101017789909940379noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-75550359031873275052010-10-03T16:49:07.866-04:002010-10-03T16:49:07.866-04:00Nice :) ... my dad used to make grape jelly ... th...Nice :) ... my dad used to make grape jelly ... thanks for the memory!Lisa is Raw on $10 a Day (or less!)http://www.blogger.com/profile/15987636332667307533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5117658826490558811.post-38925321254189418152010-10-03T03:05:55.477-04:002010-10-03T03:05:55.477-04:00Looks rather delicous.

If it´s setting and gels it´s ready for bottling.<br />I made dandelion-&quot;honey&quot; that way....Holgerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02519830623929483849noreply@blogger.com
